Real results. Real impact. Hear from the teams using Groundswell to power their programs every day.
I have worked for very large organizations of 50k down to 4k employees. They have always been hard to work with. I love that Groundswell is so super easy.
Jania Stout
Senior Vice President, OneDigital
This tool has allowed us to rapidly expand our employee matching and employee gifting programs and has been well received by the associates. Groundswell continues to add new features that make the platform even more valuable to us. The partnership with CAF America to include international NGOs allowed us to expand to our India-based associates which has been very well received.
Durward Ferland
Partner, Wipfli
Not only does Groundswell let you put corporate giving into the hands of employees, the user experience is seamless and the customer support is A+. The Groundswell team is always proactive about finding new ways for our company to leverage the app and the holidays awareness month toolkits are especially helpful.

Big impact doesn’t have to mean big effort. Groundswell makes it simple to launch, manage, and scale programs that matter.
